The couple got engaged 10 months after Dog’s late wife Beth died.
“So when I came in I was like, ‘Wow, this is awesome.’ Then he said, ‘Come in, sit down because I need to talk to you.’ So I put all the food in the kitchen and I came in and he said, ‘I know that God brought you into my life and I don’t want to spend one moment of it without you.’”ĭespite the happy news, Dog is still in a very public feud with Bonnie, who believes her father is homophobic and racist. “I think I had gone to pick up some food and then when I came back, he had all the lights turned down with just a few lights on and a bunch of candles lit.” Beth passed away at the age of 51, after fighting a long and painful battle. He claims it's too difficult for him to stay there with all of her belongings that have stayed untouched since she has passed away. “I wasn’t expecting it at all,” Frane told The Sun of the proposal.
